Photography by Joe Blackford

I love being out and about, and I love to take photos whilst I’m doing it. The other day I was scratching my head because I couldn’t get a shot I’d taken onto Instagram, Joe (my 14 year son) said here, do this, that and press this and there you go. So I said – how come you know how to do that, he gave me that teenager look of ‘everyone knows how to do that!’ and proudly announce that he had a much bigger following than me on Instagram. So (slightly ruffled) I said – OK, show me some of your photos then! So he did… and I honestly didn’t realise he was a good at taking photos as he is!

I asked him to send me some – and here are a selection of his shots. What do you think? Comments below please.

By day I used to be a self employed website developer running my company www.designconscious.co.uk but now I have flipped my career on it’s head and I have retrained as a caravan engineer servicing caravans and motorhomes. I can be found at Telford Caravan Services I am also the author of Make Camp. I along with my family love caravanning and time willing we go as much as we can. I have two teenage children so their hobbies and social life take precedence but when we can we are off in our Land Rover Discovery to ‘make camp’ in our Swift Coastline Esprit.

ABOUT US

Make Camp is a blog written by website developer Ian Blackford about all things camping. Ian, his wife and two children were often seen in their white N Reg Mazda Bongo (but now can be seen in their Land Rover Discovery 3 with ‘Stan-the-van’ in tow) zooming down the M5 to Devon or Cornwall.

Ian realised that camping creates some eventful, infuriating, glorious, memorable but most of all happy times and he thought he really ought to write about it.
